17 And loving life ;)

Hey guys, im 17! yay, which means..

1. I can actually start to learn to drive.. say whaaatt?!
2. I am no longer the toddler of my year at college. well.. im still 3 years younger then most of them. but 17 sounds better than 16..right?
3. erm.. maybe ill stop being scared when home alone? or maybe not. 

So i thought id do a little 'birthday special' post. partly for anyone who wants to read this.. and partly so i can look back on this post and remind myself what i actually got etc :) 

I didnt do too much for my birthday this year, as i was at college on the day (Tuesday) and it was my longest day, from 8-7 pm. instead, i had my family and a few friends pop round on the Sunday for what my mum calls a 'tea party'.. really, its nothing like what it sounds, its not posh, at all. although we did have tea.. and nibbles.. and lots and lots of fruit cake (don't judge).

On to the prezzies :) 

 i Absolutely love all of my presents, this year i got quite alot of 'Good health' bracelets ect, so if i get ill again this year then i don't know WHAT will help :P

The purse i picked out myself. Love it, and its so spacey inside too which is perfect for me

The glass is from my auntie and i thought it was just so cute. love it

The mug is from my dad.. and iv gotta admit, he got it spot on with the quote. im not like that with everyone though.. just him ;)

I was so excited when my mum told me my auntie was coming over from America,so that she could bring me some new UGGS. ahhhhhhhhhhhhh. i cant tell you how much i love these. i know uggs arnt everyone cup of tea. but they are my cuppa tea And cake.

I'm sure you'll be hearing plenty more about them..

I was also so happy when i unwrapped my mystery gift,when i found that my mum got me this Huge soap and glory set. i love soap and glory and ill defiantly be doing an in depth review of this within the next month, Just a hint though.. I LOVE.

I also got lots of other bits and bobs,i got a lot of money this year so expect a haul (!) my dads getting my driving lessons and he got me a coat that im in love with, so youll see that in an outfit of the day. and sweets and chocolate and mugs ect :) i am so pleased with what i got and i had a lovely day, and thankyou for all the birthday wishes :) xx

What would you like me to do next? i need suggestions please! hope you enjoyed this post and hope you all had a great start to the year.
